Who's a good source for nice, original, restored (If they can be) headlight bulbs?

Re: 1958 Headlight Bulbs
I usually get my early T-3's from the junk yard. They're getting a little hard to find, especially 58. I've never seen any restored. They do make repros,very small deduct. -

Used to be a guy...
Finishing Touches, 8181 61 Lane, Pinellas Park, FL 33781, 727-546-6915 (evenings).
He sells tested originals, I gather.
I never got anything from him, but a friend got a set of 68-71 T3s from him. On the old flyer I have, he listed the 58-59 T3 at $110/set "very rare - inquire".
If you can find a truck junkyard, look for school busses. Most of the old busses I have seen in yards still had the original bulbs in them. In fact, one of the T3s on my car came from a fire truck.Comment

School bus hint...
on some of those old babes (they ARE getting hard to find), you'll see warning lamps installed overhead that would flash to warn traffic to stop when the bus was stopped to pick-up/un-load passengers. Remove the colored lens and it's not uncommon to find real McCoy, T3, low beams inside that've NEVER seen wind driven debris to pit the glass!Comment
